The Kerala Story Is Being Screened In Just A Single Theatre In West Bengal With A Disclaimer “Narratives Are Based On Fictional Accounts”, Enjoys Good Response

The Kerala Story has emerged as the biggest surprise story of 2023 at the box office. Despite a lack of star power, the film has done exceptional business by earning over 200 crores in India. However, on the other side, it has become one of the most controversial topics in recent times. It even saw a ban in a few Indian states, including West Bengal and Tamil Nadu.

On May 8, the state government of West Bengal imposed a ban on TKS, claiming it could disturb communal harmony. However, the decision was overturned by the Supreme Court. Still, only one theatre in the state is screening the film.

As per Eastern India Motion Picture Association (EIMPA), The Kerala Story is being screened in just a single theatre in West Bengal. The cinema hall is situated in Bongaon town near the India-Bangladesh border. Interestingly, the film is getting screened with a disclaimer “Narratives are based on fictional accounts”. As per PTI, the film is enjoying a good response.
